*Information Systems for Data Intensive Supply Chains*

SIGADIT mini-track at AMCIS 2010

Supply chains are generally enabled by complex information systems that cater to cross-functional or intra-organizational activities (e.g., enterprise resource planning: ERP systems) as well as inter-organizational activities (e.g., business-to-business: B2B systems). These complex information systems cater to a “data intensive” information-sharing environment between the hundreds of suppliers and customers involved in supply chain operations. Due to differences in the information systems portfolios of organizations in the supply chain and the extent of implementation (i.e., one-way or two-way information sharing) of these complex information systems, there is considerable human intervention at the organizational boundaries to ensure accurate transfer and capture of information. Moreover, the adoption and implementation of such complex information systems are non-trivial activities and entail joint decision-making between organizations on the supply chain. Consequently, organizations face considerable challenges in achieving supply chain visibility, realizing the true efficiency and effectiveness of such complex information systems, and implementing complex information systems.

We solicit theoretical and empirical papers on the adoption and implementation of complex information systems. Potential topics include but are not limited to the following:

§ Adoption and implementation of ERP, SCM, CRM, SRM, and B2B systems

§ SCM: Supply chain management

§ CRM: Customer relationship management

§ SRM: Supplier relationship management

§ Interface between intra-organizational and inter-organizational information systems

§ Case studies of supply chain visibility through complex information systems

§ Complex information systems in private and public sectors

§ Technologies for increasing efficiency and effectiveness of complex information systems

§ Enablement of information sharing across organizational boundaries

§ Complex information systems across different industry sectors

§ Optimal portfolios of complex information systems for supply chain operations

§ Diffusion of ERP, SCM, CRM, SRM, and B2B systems
